James Martin’s Saturday Kitchen

A chef that feels real and makes cooking look fun and enjoyable – James Martin. We love watching his show on Saturday’s on BBC One. His recipes are strightforward and he makes everything look simple and easy. Here’s a recipe from his last programme – Braised Chicken Wings and seared scallops with hazelnuts.

James Martin-Wahl-192James mostly seems to be using KitchenAid cooking utensiles and food processors which is rather amusing considering he has his own vast range of kitchen gadgets and appliances but it is obviously a BBC One decision, don’t you agree ;)

Have a look at both our KitchenAid range and James Martin range of items at www.ishoppe.co.uk.

KitchenAid Artisan Stand Mixer KSM150 – Red and Cream

KitchenAid KSM150 BERCustomer reviews for KitchenAid KSM150 BER Artisan Stand Mixer

“I bought the Kitchenaid Food Mixer (Red!) about a month ago. Since then I have used it many times. I have had an interest in baking and cooking for about 25 years and it is the best mixer I have ever experienced using. Although pricey it is definitely well worth the money. Very easy to use and to clean. I have used it for sweet and savoury dishes. Brilliant for making pastry, meringue, cake mixes etc ~ basically everything!

The large bowl is great when doubling and trebling amounts. I would recommend it without hesitation.”

———–

KitchenAid KSM150BAC“This mixer was bought as a birthday present for my wonderful long term Girlfriend.

Well if there had ever been something I did well then it was buying her this. Now I’m not talking about the amount of sheer joy it brought to her when she opened it (despite it being a different colour from the one I ordered) No I’m talking about the machine itself. It is truly a fantastic piece of engineering. Everything about is solid and precise the way it mixes is unique and it is so simple to use. There is definitely a reason as to why all the top chefs on the cookery programs use such a machine. It does the job magnificently. Not only that it looks good to boot.

All in all our (I like to call it that now) Kitchen Aid Artisan Mixer now has pride and place in our kitchen and we wouldn’t change it for the world.

A great, and WELL worth the money, piece of kitchen excellence.”

————-

“I bought this item as a present for my fiancee. We have seen them aon all of the cookery programs and other TV shows. They look so cool, so classic, so sexy.

It does look good, very good, and we get a lot of comments about it when ever anyone visits. But does design compromise performance.

Not at all. There is a reason why celebrity chefs have the Kitchen aid on the programs, because they work ! Everyone knows “Kenwood chef“, as the original, but this is better. Loads of attachemtns means that any mixing job is light work. There is even an attachment to make pasta. If you have tried to make pasta with a manual machine, you will know that it requires either three hands or two people!

This is an excellent item, and you will not be disapointed.”

CD/DVD Replication Process

CD/DVD Burning

Duplication is the process of recording information onto blank discs, CD or DVD, often called burning. The process is often referred to as burning because a laser is used to heat a chemical dye in the disc and literally “burn” marks that will be read as data. Because this thin layer of chemical dye is inside the disc, it is important to use high quality blank discs to get good results . . . similar to using quality film in a camera.

Philips DVD-R 16X 4.7GB Screw Pack (50 Pack)At ishoppe.co.uk, we offer packs of 50 DVD-R from Philips and TDK.

The History of Coffee – by De’longhi

Delonghi-EN660R Espresso Coffee Maker - REDDe’Longhi is situated in Treviso, very near to Venice, and great inspiration is taken from this when designing and crafting our domestic coffee machines to ensure that consumers can achieve a true Italian coffee in the comfort of their own homes.

Coffee was first brought to Europe in the 1600’s via the vibrant, modern and wealthy Italian port of Venice, which was a key trading site between North African and Eastern countries, and the rest of Europe. The wealthy Venetians recognised and greatly appreciated this important substance and soon established the first Italian coffee bar, the world famous ‘Caffe Florian’ in towards the end of the 17th century.

From this moment on, Italy and Venice became synonymous with coffee, and in 1901 Luigi Bezzera invented the world’s first espresso machine. ‘Espresso’, literally meaning ‘express or fast’ in Italian, is considered the true connoisseur’s way of drinking coffee. It forces hot Delonghi ICM2B Filter Coffee Makerwater and steam under pressure (measured in ‘Bars’) through freshly ground coffee to create a short and intense coffee, full of body and flavour. A sign of a quality espresso is the ‘crema’ – a creamy layer that sits on top of the espresso to seal in the temperature and flavour. The thicker the crema, the better the espresso and the quality of the machine that produced it. All De’Longhi espresso makers have a Bar pressure of 15 or above – equal to those found in any professional bar or restaurant.
